yeah but you mean mandatory military service more as a way of instilling discipline and perspective in someone right, not as a way of fighting a war. i would agree but almost every person i know who joined the military came back as a huge jerkwad Im of just the right age that all my friends who joi...

You would be surprised how much interaction ba...
